Do you do video chats often? For work I seem to be constantly on Slack, Google Meets, and Zoom. With friends and family I talk to them on Facetime or messenger.
I use whatsapp's platform for personal VCs, also Discord for peeps that are in my "gaming" circle. For professional situations i use Zoom, Teams or Meet.
Video chats, not really. I have people seeing my webcam on Twitch. The last time I used WhatsApp was just a call. Not even using the video. I never even used zoom.
Never, when I was a kid and all the phones came out with front-facing cameras I was mad for video chatting, and then a couple of times in my teens I would have used tinychat with a bunch of friends on a forum I used to go to, but certainly not since then.
Just for some university coursework where I had to do a presentation. Other than that, I haven't used video chats much. Even for work, most people don't bother turning their video on so I've stuck with that mindset.
I think the pandemic had really opened me to using video chat. In the past I used to be self conscious and avoided it but now I find that I actually prefer. I like seeing the other person so I can really tell if they're listening to me or not. lol
I have not opted for video chats as they do not impress me. I had a zoom meeting once with family to celebrate one of my sister's 90th birthday Her daughter arranged it all. It was not well organised.
